PRINCE HARRY WINS APOLOGY FROM NEWSPAPER

LONDON Britain's Prince Harry has won an apology and substantial damages from the publishers of the Mail on Sunday after he sued for libel over claims he had turned his back on the military when he ended his royal role. An article in the paper in October said he had lost touch with the Marines, with which he had a formal relationship until last March.

“All of these allegations are false as the Mail on Sunday and the Mail Online have accepted, albeit after considerable damage was already done,” his lawyer, Jenny Afia, told a remote hearing at London's High Court on Monday.

The paper had agreed to pay damages which Harry would donate to the Invictus Games, a sporting event he founded for military personnel wounded in action.
